Attached: 1 image #ClimateDiary #CollapseDiary “Now is the time of monsters” So my #RegenerativeAnthropology piece, co-written with Peter Sutoris and Tobias Muller, is finally out. It is about the role #Anthropology could and should play in addressing the Metacrisis. It is written for an anthropology audience, but i wanted to share it here as it resonates strongly with discussions here on #ClimateDiary over the last 3 years. 1/n https://www.berghahnjournals.com/view/journals/saas/34/1/saas340101.xml

#ClimateDiary #CollapseDiary #AcademicVenting This week i had to re-interview for the 0.5 fixed term position (teaching environment, politics and society) i had for the past year to do it for another - a particular kind of 2026 moment in itself. Anyway I managed to talk about solidarity prepping in the interview @muellertadzio ! 😊

Yesterday I spent the last drop of stored rainwater for the vegetable bed. It hasn't rained since the heavy downpour eleven days ago and the sunny-windy days have made for strong evaporation. I hope the seedlings will make it until the next rainfall.

#ClimateDiary Short overview of my evolving consciousness

2000s: climate change, ecological destruction bad but can be tackled/ a while off/studying this is my contribution

2017-2021: it’s a #ClimateEmergency! We need to act NOW! #Activism

2022-25: it’s a #Polycrisis What will get us first - Climate breakdown? inequality? Fascism? AI dystopia? (Nuclear) war?

2026: Oh, it’s all at once, right now, this is it #CollapseDiary

(and yes i know many of you will have been years ahead of me)

#ClimateDiary Morning walk to shops seeing debris of storm #Goretti everywhere i was musing all the small ways in which our lives are crumbling, getting harder than they used to be (for some reason pinning this on Woody Allen films, privileged couples casually having dinner together in restaurants as if it’s nothing - that world, always for the few, doesn’t exist any more) - then saw this wall and thought it was apt! #TheCrumble #CollapseDiary

#ClimateDiary #CollapseDiary This just popped up on my phone and i couldn’t help laugh out loud (a hollow, bitter kind of laugh).

Should we be worried— eh, yes?

(and quite funny to see the BBC apparently cottoning onto this years later than everyone else)

#ClimateDiary 3/3 all this i know is symptomatic of how things are. I wish i could remember who once said that really this is or should be #CollapseDiary - so true! and of course all of this is interrelated anyway. And it’s ok if sometimes climate is a bit more in the background.

Anyway, just wanted to explain why i have been finding it hard to engage with #ClimateDiary again recently!
